FREIGHT RATES.

Legislation both State and Nation
al, fails 10 give the relief demanded
bv the public in the matter OF freight
rates. and whether the fault lies with
the law or with the Interpretation and
enforcement of it does not appear.
1t is very generally believed that the
railroads are not pleased with the
laws and hope to create a public de-
ma nd for their repeal by making an
off ensive and onerous Interpretation
OF them, and enforcing this interprs-
tation with the utmost rlgldlty.
The inevitable result OF such policy,
they believe, will be an universal
clamor for their repeal, or at least for
such a modification as will give the
roads such discretion as they desire.
The immediate results, so far as
Sank Centre is concerned, have been
in the greatest degree detrimental.
Take specific instances in illustration
the Hubbard Hammock CHAIR
Co. has received complaints from
customers at Chicago, Detroit, Cleve-
land and other remote points. They
say that the freight even on large IN
voices, are from twelve to twenty
per cent. of the value of the goods,
and these customers cannot duplicate
orders under existing rates. This
will virtually exclude them from fur
Their shipments to their best custom
ers, and so far cripple their business
as to make it Improbable. On the
other hand, if satisfactory rates could
be procured the company would
double it's capacity at once and en-
ploY fifty or more mechanics. And
this company is on common level
with other manufacturing schemes,
and this village like others similarly
situated. Under the present order OF
railroad affairs all manufacturing en-.
terprises at interior points must either
languish or die.
Another illustration: Parker, White
g. Co. have sold over three hundred
head of stock for Iowa points. Thu
purchasers complain that it cost then
twenty-five dollars more per car t.
ship this stock than it did year ag'
about one dollar 4 head. The re
suit must be that the differences il
freight must be charged up against tn
cattle, to be deducted from the price
paid the farmer.
The operations of the law strike
at all alike. The manufacturer an
the farmer, the consumer and tho pre-
Queer all suffer, but the ultimate bur
then falls heaviest upon the farmer
Like the lieutenant governor of Me-
York :-"the farmer he pays tn
freight"

Archer in the saddle.

''The most peculiar thing ever noticed
about Jockey Fred Archer said an old
English sport the other day, was the de-
liberation with which he settled himself
in his saddle. 1t rarely took him less
than FIVE minutes to get his position, but
when he did get settled there wasn't q
horse ON the continent that could shift
him. Archer had peculiar legs. They
were abnormally long from the knee TO
the ankle, and wonderfully elastic These
legs stood Archer in good stead in a hard
race With his knees pressed dead against
the paniers OF his saddle he could remove
his feet from the sJirrups, and curling
that portion of his legs below the knee
high upon the TANKS of his nag, rake the
flesh with his steels. Archer was the
o1ly jockey in the world who could per
form this feat. 1t was seldom that he
chose to do it, but when he did you could
rest assured that the race was for blood.
The dead jockey won many hard fought
battle in this manner. / have seen his
feet suddenly leave the stirrups when he
was being hard pressed near the judge
stand, and then watched his horse spring
TO the front as the glittering steel on the
why legs of his rider sank deep into the
flesh No, sir; Archer didn't seem &c
have a bow in his legs from the knee
down. They were as supple as willow
